Most major Universities have a Career Services department. Career Services is established to help students with Resume and Cover Letter assistance, Job Searches, Interviewing skills, etc. This department should be given much more value and resource. What they provide could truly determine the outcome of the post graduate experience regardless of the academic status of students.
I have witnessed this department at work from a middle-tier university (Youngstown State) and from a top-tier institution (Carnegie Mellon). The way each of them operates is totally different. From a outsiders point of view the success of the alumni directly correlate with the operations of the career services groups.
Yes, we know there are dozens of others factors that go into developing a network of strong alumnus. My question today is how can all learning institution give better value to their customers (STUDENTS)??? The answer is maximizing and improvement the career service offerings.
What do you think?
